Here We Go Again!

I beleive we have a depresson on our hands. Aside from a CDO, the over all circulation at 850 up, and given the upper air, I would be quite surprised if we did not have "Wilma" on our hands by tonight. The bigger question is "where"......

Re: Here We Go Again!

October 17 will have everyone jumping around and a media event will be had by all. Wilma will be talked about for two reasons: one, she is a W hurricane. Two she is forecasted early on by the models to be a strong hurricane, and three every one is so tired of hurricanes that those not immediately in harms way are thinking about Halloween, football and some early Christmas shopping. It does not take a psychic to say that if the models verify, some one will get the trick earlier than they expected. I can not imagine the old government pocket book could still have a lot of cash lying around after the war, and the previous hurricanes.

Re: Here We Go Again!

Anyone wanna bet that they will squeeze out an Alpha even if they have to blow snow into the atmosphere to get one?

Re: Here We Go Again!

Wilma seems to have been suffering from multiple personality disorder ever since it got started. I'm predicting that more than one conflicting forecasting model will turn out to have most accurately projected the path of this system before it looses its name. Granted one of those models would (necessarily) turn out to have projected the path of a storm with some other name than Wilma--otherwise (presumably) a model's accuracy would be immaterial, given the magnitude of the assignment. As I recall, Emily and Franklin had also been part of the same system while in or somewhere near the Caribbean.
